TO  THE  READER. 

In  the  preparation  of  the  Soldier's  Service  Dictionary  of  terms 
and  phrases,  with  their  French  equivalents,  the  endeavor  has 
been  to  provide  a  key  to  the  military  and  conversational  terms 
used  in  the  Belgian,  British,  and  French  armies  that  shall  in- 
stantly serve  any  one  who  consults  it,  and  thus  measure  up  to 
the  maxim  ''prompt  ser\4ce  is  true  service." 

It  is  assumed  that  the  person  likely  to  consult  this  book 
speaks  and  understands  English;  that  he  knows  in  EngUsh 
what  he  wishes  to  say  in  French,  and  that  he  wants  to  know 
how  to  say  it,  and  say  it  promptly  so  that  he  can  be  under- 
stood. For  example,  suppose  he  wished  to  ask  in  French: 
"Where  is  the  enemy?"  he  would  look  up  these  English  words 
in  their  vocabulary  places,  thus  obtaining  the  French  equiva- 
lents "Où  (where)  est  (is)  l'ennemi  (jthe  enemy)?"  or,  as  indi- 
cated phonetically,  ù  ë  len"._.na-mi',  which  form  the  sentence 
required.  As  many  phrases  are  given  imder  the  important  word, 
this  should  always  be  looked  up  first,  to  save  time.  For  instance, 
if  he  wished  to  say  in  French:  "Bring  up  the  horses!"  by  turning 
to  the  word  horse  in  the  vocabulary  he  will  find  the  French 
phrase  in  full:  "Faites  venir  les  chevaux!"  with  its  pronuncia- 
tion. If  he  wanted  to  say  "Give  me  some  breakfast,  please," 
he  would  turn  to  breakfast  and  there  find  the  needed  phrase. 

Instead  of  following  the  beaten  track  by  grouping  the  terms 
in  this  book  under  several  heads,  divided  and  subdivided,  as 
has  been  done  by  compilers  of  other  works  that  aim  to  coyer 
the  subjects  of  which  this  treats,  the  entire  contents,  which 
total  more  than  ten  thousand  terms,  are  presented  in  one 
alphabetical  order,  and,  as  explained  above,  the  related  phrases 
are  grouped  under  the  m,ost  important  word  in  the  phrase. 

As  vàW  be  seen  by  consulting  the  key  to  the  symbols  used 
for  indicating  the  pronunciations  of  the  varioiis  terms  the  guide 
contains,  the  plan  followed  throughout  is  to  give  the  chief 
vowel  sounds  the  same  values  that  they  have  on  the  continent 
of  Europe:  —  a  as  in  art;  e  as  in  prey;  i  as  in  police;  0  as  in 
go,  and  u  as  in  rule.  Variations  are  indicated  by  different 
letters  —  one,  and  one  only,  for  each  sound  throughout  the 
alphabet  (see  page  xii).  The  Editor  invites  the  cooperation 
of  all  persons  who  are  interested  in  making  this  the  most 
complete  and  most  serviceable  book  of  its  kind  to  those  for 
whose  use  it  has  been  designed  and  compiled. 

To  simplify  the  study  of  the  positions  of  the  different  parts 
of  speech  and  the  inflections  and  irregularities  of  French  verbs 
brief  explanations  are  included  together  with  a  concise  table  of 
verbs  in  an  Appendix  to  the  main  vocabulary.

PRONUNCIATION 


OF  FRENCH  VOWELS,  DIPHTHONGS,  AND 
CONSONANTS. 

In  most  of  the  languages  of  Contixiental  Europe  the  vowels 
have  Latin  values:  a  as  in  "art";  ê  as  in  "prey";  î  as  in 
"machine";  5  as  in  "go";  and  Q  as  in  "rule."  Persons  who 
speak  English  need  to  be  cautioned  against  pronouncing 
foreign  long  vowels  as  diphthongs.  In  English  long  ê  with 
most  speakers  ends  with  a  light  i  resonance  (that  is,  as  a 
diphthong,  ëO;  long  ô  is  generally  turned  into  5";  long  Q  into 
Ù".  But  in  German,  French,  and  European  languages  generally, 
these  vowels  are  to  be  pronounced  without  the  i  or  u  element 
at  their  close.  Foreign  vowels  are  generally  tenser  than 
English  vowels. 

Vowel  Modifications. 

In  French  the  vowel=sounds,  as  we  know  them  in  English, 
are  modified  in  two  ways,  by  "rounding"  and  by  becoming 
"nasahzed." 

"Rounding"  is  the  effect  on  a  speech«sound  of  pursmg  the  lips 
till  the  orifice  is  roundish,  as  in  sounding  English  û  {boot).  In 
English  only  back  vowels  are  rounded;  in  some  other  languages 
certain  front  vowels  are  thus  modified. 

(1).  Rounded  ï.  To  make  it,  say  î  (as  in  see,  machine),  at 
the  same  time  pursing  the  lips  as  for  û  (in  rule).  The 
symbol  used  in  this  guide  is  ii. 

(2).  Rounded  ë.  Say  ë  (as  in  fate),  at  the  same  time  pursing 
the  lips.  This  is  the  sound  heard  in  French  (eu),  German 
(long  Ô),  etc. 

(3).  Rounded  e  or  a  (really  a  sound  between  e  and  a). 
Make  such  a  sound,  at  the  same  time  pursing  the  lips. 
The  sound  is  heard  in  French  (eu),  German  (short  o),  etc. 
The  English  sound  nearest  to  these  last  two  is  the 
û  of  burn  (burn),  and  hence  the  symbol  here  used  for 
these  two  rounded  vowels  is  Û.  But  the  foreign  sounds 
are  not  exactly  û. 

(4).  In  French  are  heard  "nasal"  vowels,  that  is,  vowels  to 
which  a  nasal  quality  \9  imparted  from  the  fact  that, 
while  they  are  being  sounded,  the  passage  through  the 
nose  is  open  as  well  as  that  through  the  mouth.  Hence 
part  of  the  voiced  breath  escapes  through  the  nose  and 
reverberates  in  the  nasal  cavities.  The  nasal  vowels  are 
not  vowels  followed  by  n  or  q,  but  simply  vowels  that 
receive  their  quality  or  timbre  from  resonance  in  both 
mouth  and  nose  instead  of  in  mouth  alone.  In  Ihi.', 
dictionary  Tiasality  in  a  vowel  is  incUcated  by  adding  to 
the  symbol  of  that  vowel  the  symbol  h;  whence  an  = 
nasal  a,  an  =  nasal  a,  etc.  Many  Americans,  in  their 
normal  speech,  unconsciously  pronounce  some  or  all  of 
their  vowels  with  a  nasal  quality;  hence  they  are  in 
danger  of  making  the  foreign  vowels  too  strongly  nasal,  a 
practise  which  should  be  guarded  against  with  all  possible 
care.

VOWELS  AND  CONSONANTS.  ix 

In  the  following  table  the  components  of  each  diphthong 
are  shown: 
Diphthong.  French  sou7ids. 

ia     =       Î  +  a   (i  as  in  police    +  à  as   in    art),    as   French 

viande  (vl''ând'). 
iai    =       Ï  +  è    (I  as  in  police  +   â  as  in  fare),  as  French 

liaison  (lï"â"zen'). 
ié     =       i  +  é    (î  as  in  police  +   ë  as  in  prey),  as  French 

prié  (prî"^yê'). 
iè     =       î  +  è    (ï   as  in  police  +  â   as  in  fare),   as   French 

pièce  (pï"wyâs'). 
In  the  following  the  division  occurs   after  the  i,    and   each 
diphthong  represents  two  sounds.     The  nasal  sound  is  added 
in  some  cases: 


io  as  in  French  idiot  (i"di"^ 

yô'). 

ian  as  in  French  expédiant 

(eks"pê"dl"^yân'). 
iau  as  in  French  miauler 

(mi"ô"lë'). 


ienasinFrenchfei>n(bï",^yan'). 
ient  as  in  French  patient  (pa"- 

sî"~^yan'). 
ieu  as  in  F-ench  lieu  (lî"^yû'). 
ion  as  in  French  portion  (pôr"- 

sî"v^yGn'). 


oi     =        o  +  a  (o  as  in  obey  +  â  as  in  art) . 
Preceded  by  a  consonant  oi  sounds  like  wa;  as  in  French  foi 
(fô-â  or  fwâ). 
Diphthong.  French  sounds. 

oin  =        o  +  in  (o  as  in  obey  +  a  as  in  o/):    as  in  French 

loin  (Iwan). 
oua  =        ou  +  â  (û  as  in  rule  +  â  as  in  art)  :  as  in  French 

secoua  (se"kû"â'). 
oui  =        ou  +  ï  (û  as  in  rule  +  ï  as  in  police)  :  as  in  French 

Louis  (lû"i'). 
ua  =       U  +  â  (ù  as  in  French  dune  +  â  as  in  art)  :  as  in 

French  nuage  {nû"â.z').* 
ui  =       U  +  ï  (u  as  in  French  dune  +  î  as  in  police)  :  as  in 

French  pluie  (plwi). 
uin  =       u  +  in  (û  as  in  French  dune  +  a  as  in  at)  :  s.s  in 

French  Juin  (jwah). 


Consonant  ^Modifications. 

Consonants  in  foreign  languages  (with  some  exceptions) 
are  more  carefully,  and  often  more  firmly  or  energetically, 
enunciated  than  in  English. 

(5).  What  one  may  call  "palatalized"  consonants  are  made 
by  combining  the  sound  y  with  the  normal  consonants. 
Palatalized  1,  for  example,  is  not  1  followed  by  y  (as  one 
hears  it  in  brilliant),  but  1  and  y  merged  into  one — an  1 
made  by  raising  not  the  tip  of  the  tongue  to  the  upper 
gums,  but  the  front  of  the  tongue  to  the  front  part 
of  the  palate  above  it.  Palatalized  n  is  made  by  raising 
the  front  of  the  tongue  just  as  for  y,  but  further,  until 
it  is  pressed  against  the  front  palate.  After  such  a 
palatalized  consonant  there  will  almost  unavoidably  be 
a  more  or  less  distinct  y  heard  as  a  glide  to  a  foUo^àng 
vowel;  and  the  symbol  used  in  this  book  for  these  conso- 
nants is  a  combination  of  the  appropriate  consonant 
symbol  with  the  symbol  y  (ny,  ly,  etc.).  But  such  a 
symbol  as  ny  is  not  to  be  interpreted  as  n  followed  by 
y,  but  as  an  n  made  at  the  same  place  in  the  mouth  as 
y  is  made.     It  should  be  noted  that  the  so-called  l-mouillê 


♦The  symbol  5  =  zh.     See  Number  9,  page  xi. 


X  VOWELS  AND  CONSONANTS. 

in  French  (spelled  -il,  -ill)  has  in  the  best  standard  pro- 
nunciation ceased  to  be  an  1  and  is  pronounced  simply 
as  y. 

(6).  Two  r's  are  heard  in  French,  (a)  In  French,  German, 
etc.,  a  trilled  r  is  heard.  It  is  made  by  raising  the  tip 
of  the  tongue  almost  to  the  upper  gums  and  setting  the 
tip  to  vibrating  or  fluttering  against  the  gums.  (6)  The 
"uvular"  r,  made  by  raising  the  back  of  the  tongue  close 
to  the  soft  palate  and  by  means  of  the  .stream  of  breath 
setting  the  uvula  to  flapping  in  the  narrow  passage.  In 
Continental  (European)  languages  the  uvular  r  is  frequent. 

(7).  Strictly  native  words  in  French,  Italian,  Spanish,  and 
some  other  European  languages,  do  not  use  the  letter 
w,  which  appears,  in  the  main,  only  in  borrowed  words. 
In  some  native  words,  however,  a  sound  like  w  is  heard, 
represented  by  other  letters.  In  French,  for  example, 
there  are  two  w's,  one  represented  by  u  (as  in  nuil),  the 
other  by  ou  (as  in  oui).  They  differ  in  that  the  first 
(that  represented  by  m)  begins  with  the  tongue  and  lips 
approximately  in  position  for  "rounded"  I  [see  Vowel 
Modifications  (1)],  and  the  second  begins  with  a  pcsition 
similar  to  that  for.û — is,  in  fact,  about  the  normal  English 
w.  The  sound  of  French  ui  would,  then,  be  more  nearly 
represented  by  iii;  but  to  avoid  multiplying  symbols  the 
one  symbol  w  is  used  in  this  dictionary  to  represent  both 
the  normal  w  sound  (which  begins  with  û)  and  this  other 
w  (which  begins  with  ii). 

(8).  English  f  and  v  are  made  by  placing  the  lower  lip 
against  the  upper  teeth.  In  some  other  languages,  as 
Spanish  and  Latin  (Roman  method),  similar  consonants 
are  bilabial,  that  is,  made  between  the  two  lips.  Such  a 
V  is  like  an  English  w,  except  that  the  lips  are  not  pursed 
into  a  roundish  opening,  but  are  spread,  the  voice  escap- 
ing, not  all  at  the  center,  but  between  the  lips  along  their 
total  length.  When  the  lips  separate,  they  do  so  all  at 
once,  not  with  the  gradual  widening  that  marks  the 
English  w. 

In  French  words  no  one  syllable  has  a  decided  accent, 
but  nearly  all  syllables  are  uttered  with  equal  stress  of 
voice.  To  an  English  ear  a  chief  stress  seems  to  fall  on 
the  final  syllable;  hence,  in  this  guide,  the  primary  accent 
(')  has  been  placed  over  the  last  syllable  of  most  French 
words,  and  the  secondary  accent  (")  on  the  other  syllables 
(except  over  obscure  e),  to  indicate  a  careful  enunciation 
of  all  the  unaccented  syllables. 

Vowel  and  Consonant  Sounds. 

1.  a  represents  sometimes  a,  but  generally  a  sound  between 
a  and  a:  (1)  a  =  5,  in  the  endings  -as,  -az  (when  the  s  or 
z  is  pronounced,  and  often  when  s  is  silent),  -ase,  -axon, 
-aille;  and  when  circumflexed  (a);  (2)  a  (in  most  other 
cases),  d,  and  â  are  pronounced  with  a  sound  near  that  of 

a,  but  not  so  "flat"  as  this  EnglLsh  vowel.  French  a 
approaches  the  sound  a  especially  before  the  final  sounds 

b,  d,  g,  1,  m,  n,  ny  (that  is,  the  letters  b,  d,  g,  I,  m,  n,  gn  when 
these  are  pronounced),  and  before  final  -I'e,  -ge.  oi  =  wâ 
when  following  r,  and  in  the  ending  -oie;  in  most  other 
cases  oi  =  wa  (with  a  not  so  "flat"  as  the  English  a). 

12.  (1)  e  before  a  pronounced  consonant,  before  final  silent 
t,  ta,  and  final  silent  s  in  monosyllables;  ei,  ai  (except  the 


VOWELS  AND  CONSONANTS.  xi 

verbal  ending  pai)  ;  è,  ê;  ay,  ey— all  are  pronounced  as  a 
(really  a  sound  between  e  and  a) .  (2)  é  ;  e  followed  by 
a  silent  final  consonant  (other  than  t)  ;  ai  (when  it  is  a 
verbal  ending) — aU  are  pronounced  as  ë. 

3.  (1)  o  when  it  is  the  final  sound  in  a  syllable  (that  is,  it 
may  be  followed  by  silent  consonants),  and  o  in  the  end- 
ings -ose  (and  generally  before  an  s  which  has  the  value 
of  z),  -me  and  -ne;  ô,  aô,  au,  eau — all  are  pronounced 
as  Ô.     (2)   0  not  as  above,  and  au  before  r,   =  e. 

4.  eu,  œu,  not  followed  in  the  same  syllable  by  a  pronounced 
consonant,  or  in  a  closed  syllable  ending  with  the  sound 
of  z  or  t  {-euse,  -eute,  -eutre),  eu  =  "rounded"  ë  [see  Vowel 
Modifications  (2)]:  otherwise,  eu,  œu,  and  always  ue, 
œ  before  -il,  -ille  (  =  y),  =  "rounded"  e  [see  Vowel  Modi- 
fications (3)]. 

5.  For  pronunciation  ol  u,  û  =  û,  see  Vowel  Modifica- 
tions (1). 

6.  e  when  final  in  unstressed  syllables  =  a;  at  the  end  of 
a  word  it  is  usually  silent  (as  in  English). 

7.  Final  d,  g,  n,  p,  s,  t,  x,  and  z  are  usually  silent.  But 
when  the  following  word  begins  with  a  vowel,  "haison" 
may  occur.  These  consonants  (not  in  all  cases;  no  rule 
can  be  given)  are  then  pronounced  as  if  beginning  the 
following  word,  d  being  sounded  as  t,  g  as  k,  s  and  x  as 
z.  r  is  silent  in  the  final  syllables  -er  and  -ier.  A  is  in 
most  words  silent. 

8.  c  before  a,  o,  u  =  k;  before  e,  i,  y  =  s;  ç  =  s.  ch  =  sTi; 
but  when  final  or  before  a  consonant  =  k.  q  and  qu 
generally  =  k. 

9.  g  before  a,  o,  u  =  g;  before  e,  i  (y)  =3;  oe  before  a,  0, 
u  also  =  3.     The  sound  of  j  is  indicated  by  3  (=  zh). 

10.  gn  =  "palatal"  n  [see  Consonant  Modifications  (5)]. 

11.  il  after  a  vowel  =  y;  ill  =  iy  [see  Consonant  Modifica- 
tions (5)];  also  i  before  a  vowel  =  y,  vmless  a  group  of 
consonants  precedes.  By  y  is  here  meant  the  initial  stage 
of  the  soxmd,  not  its  consummation. 

12.  m,  n,  final  or  before  a  consonant,  other  than  m,  n,  are 
silent,  but  impart  to  the  preceding  vowel  a  nasal  quality. 
In  such  conditions,  am,  an,  em,  en,  =  an  (but  final  en 
preceded  by  the  sound  y  =  an,  not  an);  aim,  ain,  eim. 
ein,  im,  in,  ym,  yn  =  an;  am,  on  =  eh;  oin  =  wan;  and 
urn,  un  =  un  (or  an).     [See  Vowel  Modifications  (4)]. 

13.  s  between  vowels  =  z. 

14.  -ti-  =  -ai-,  or  -ty-;  a  rule  cannot  be  stated. 

15.  French  has  the  letter  w  only  in  some  foreign  words; 
but  the  sound  is  heard  in  French  words,  spelled  ou  (as  m 
oui)-  and  it  is,  further,  the  first  element  m  the  sound 
represented  by  oi  (=  wa  or  wa),  and  by  oin  (=  WMi). 
A.  similar  sound  is  spelled  with  il  (as  m  nuit,  nuage)-,  hut 
the  sound  of  u  in  these  words  is  not  exactly  w;  it  differs 
from  w  in  that  it  begins  with  the  organs  in  position  for 
Û,  not  for  û  [see  Consonant  Modifications  (8) J. 

16.  X  between  vowels  generally  =  z.     Otherwise,  x  =  ks.

The  Consonants  and  Semivowels  are:  b,  d,  f,  g.  o,  h,  j,  (5h,  k,  1,  m. 
n,  p,  r,  s,  Éh,  t,  th,  tb,  v,  w,  y,  z,  z-  Of  these,  b,  d,  f,  h,  k,  p,  t,  v,  z 
have  the  familiar  and  unmistakable  sounds  heard  in  be,  do,  fee,  he, 
key,  pea,  tea,  vow.  zest;  g  sounds  always  as  in  get,  never  as  In  gem, 
and  s  always  as  in  sit,  never  as  in  rose  or  in  sugar. 

H  as  in  \och  (Scotch),  ach,  mich  (German),  n  as  in  bon  (French), 
indicating  a  nasal  quality,    û  as  in  Lubeck  (German) ,  Dwmas  (French) . 


The  single  accent  (')  indicates  the  primary  or  chief  stress:  the 
double  accent  (")  indicates  the  secondary  stress.  The  ligature  (^) 
when  used  in  connecting  two  consonants  indicates  that  the  sound  of 
the  first  consonant  is  carried  over  to  the  second,  as  in  accommode- 
ment: ak"^kem''^mô''da-mah'.  When  connecting  two  vowels,  as  in 
position:  pô'zrsr^yen',  it  indicates  a  rapid  utterance,  almost  ob- 
literating the  syllable  division.  The  double  dagger  (t)  Indicates  a 
variant  form.

SOME  ELEMENTS  OF  FRENCH  GRAMMAR 


There  are  in  French  nine  parts  of  speech,  namely:  article, 
adjective,  noun,  pronoun,  verb,  adverb,  preposition,  conjunc- 
tion, and  interjection. 

ARTICLE.  There  are  three  sorts  of  articles,  the  definite, 
the  indefinite,  and  the  partitive. 

The  definite  article  the  is  le  before  a  masculine  noun,  la 
before  a  feminine  noun,  and  les  for  both  genders  in  the  plural 
(le  livre,  la  lî'^^vra,  the  book;  la  pomme,  la  pem,  the  apple; 
les  livres,  le  lî'vra,  les  pommes,  le  pem,  the  books,  the  apples). 
The  indefinite  article  a,  an,  is  un  before  a  masculine  noun, 
and  une  before  a  feminine  noun  iu?i  manteau,  an  man"tô',  a 
cloak;  une  table,  iin  tâ's_bla,  a  table).  Hence  it  may  be  de- 
duced that  both  articles  always  agree  in  gender  and  number  with 
the  nouns  to  which  they  relate. 

When  the  article  le  or  la  is  to  be  used  before  a  noun  or  adjec- 
tive beginning  with  a  vowel  or  an  h  not  aspirate,  an  apostrophe 
is  put  in  the  place  of  e  or  a,  so  that  the  article  and  the  noun 
or  adjective  form  one  word  {I'or  [lor]  for  le  or,  the  gold; 
l'histoire  [lïs"twâr']  for  la  histoire,  the  history;  l'ancien  [lah"- 
sî"v^yan']  for  le  ancien,  the  senior  or  elder).  When  there  is  oc- 
casion to  use  the  article  le  immediately  after  the  preposition 
de,  of,  from,  by,  with,  in,  upon,  out  of,  some,  any,  for,  at,  to, 
both  are  contracted  into  du,  of  the,  from  the,  by  the,  some, 
any;  the  same  contraction  occurs  in  des,  of,  instead  of  de  les; 
au,  to  the,  instead  of  à  le,  aux  instead  of  à  les;  but  it  does  not 
take  place  when  le  is  followed  by  a  noun  or  adjective  begin- 
ning with  a  vowel  or  an  h  not  aspirate  (de  l'or  [da  1er],  of  the 
gold;  de  l'homme  [da  lem],  of  the  man;  de  l'ancien  monde  [da 
lan"sï"^yan'  mônd],  of  the  ancient,  world) . 

The  partitive  article  is  du,  de  la,  de  V  (before  a  vowel  or 
an  h  not  aspirate),  des,  according  to  the  gender  and  number 
of  the  noun  (du  pain  [dû  pan],  some  or  any  bread;  de  la  haine 
[da  la  hân],  some  oj  any  hatred;  de  l'hôtel  [da  lô"tel'],  of  the 
hotel;  de  l'or  [da  lôr],  some  of  the  gold;  des  poires  [de  pwar], 
some  of  the  pears)  ;  but  after  a  negation,  or  before  an  adjective 
followed  by  a  noun,  de  alone  is  used  without  any  distinction  of 
gender  or  number  (il  ne  mange  pas  de  pain  [îl  na  mân's_3a  pa 
da  pan],  he  eats  no  bread;  nous  avons  de  bon  vin  et  de  belles 
figues  [nûz^a'Ven'  da  bon  van  ë  da  bel  fîg'a],  we  have  good  wine 
and  fine  figs). 

ADJECTIVE.  The  adjective  agrees  in  gender  and  number 
with  the  noun  to  which  it  relates,  and  this  difference  of  gender 
and  number  is  generally  marked  by  the  termination  of  the 
adjective  (un  beau  cheval,  a  fine  horse;  une  poire  mûre,  a  ripe 
pear;  les  beaux  arts,  the  fine  arts). 

Adjectives  ending  in  e  are  of  both  genders  (homme  aimable, 
amiable  man;  femme  aimable,  amiable  woman).  Adjectives 
ending  in  d,  é,  eur,  i,  t,  u,  form  their  feminine  by  the  addition 
of  an  e  (grand,  grande,  great,  large;  sensé,  sensée,  sensible; 
intérieur,  intérieure,  interior;  poli,  polie,  polite;  gratuit,  gratuite, 
gratuitous;  tortu,  tortue,  crooked,  twisted);  the  same  addition 
is  made  to  those  ending  in  ais,  as,  eil,  el,  es,  et,  ien,  il,  on,  os,  ot, 
ul,  but  the  final  consonant  is  doubled  (épais,  épaisse,  thick;  pa- 
reil, pareille,  alike;  net,  nette,  clean,  neat;  bon,  bonne,  good;  sot, 
sotte,  foolish).  Adjectives  ending  in  /  change  it  into  ve  (naïf, 
7iaïve,  simple,  unaffected),  and  those  ending  in  x  change  it  into  se 
(jaloux,  jalouse,  jealous).  About  thirty  adjectives  ending  in  au, 
c,  g,  ou,  X,  have  quite  irregular  plurals  which  are  indicated  by 
the  French  dictionaries  (beau,  belle,  beautiful;  blanc,  blanche, 

163 


164  SOME  ELEMENTS  OF 


white;  long,  longue,  long;  bénin,  bénigne,  benign;  fou,  folle, 
foolish;  doux,  douce,  soft;  faux,  fausse,  false;  vieux,  vieille,  old); 
others  ending  in  r  (cher,  chère,  dear),  and  eight  others  ending 
in  et  form  their  feminine  by  adding  e,  and  require  a  grave  accent 
on  the  penultimate  e  (inquiet,  inquiète,  anxious,  uneasy). 

Adjectives  ending  in  c,  d,  e,  é,  f,  g,  i,  n,  t,  u,  form  their  plural 
by  the  addition  of  an  s  (grand,  grands;  poli,  polis;  intelligent, 
intelligents) .  Adjectives  ending  in  s  or  x  do  not  change  their  ter- 
mination in  the  plural  (gros,  big;  hideux,  hideous);  those  ending 
in  au  take  x  in  the  plural  (beau,  beaux)  ;  some  of  those  in  al  take 
s,  as  fatal,  fatals,  final,  finals,  naval,  navals;  others  change  their 
termination  into  aux  (égal,  égaux,  equal;  amical,  amicaux,  ami- 
cable); but  most  of  them  have  no  plural  masculine  (frugal, 
frugal,  etc.). 

Of  the  three  degrees  of  comparison,  the  positive  is  the  ad- 
jective in  its  simple  state.  The  comparative  of  superiority 
is  formed  by  putting  plus  (plii),  more,  before  the  adjective  (plus 
joli,  finer;  plus  illustre,  more  illustrious);  the  comparative  of 
inferiority,  by  prefixing  m,oins  (mwafi),  less,  to  the  adjective 
(mains  belle,  mwan  bel,  less  beautiful),  and  the  comparative 
of  equality,  by  putting  aussi  (ôs"s_^si')  before  the  adjective  in 
affirmative,  and  si  (si)  in  negative  phrases;  the  terms  of  com- 
parison, when  expressed,  are  connected  with  the  comparative 
by  the  conjunction  que  (aussi  instruit  que  [ôs">_^sî'  an"strwï'  ka], 
as  learned  as;  il  n'est  pas  si  âgé  qu'elle  [il  ne  pa  sï  â''^3ê'  kel], 
he  is  not  so  old  as  she).  The  comparatives  of  bon,  boh, 
mauvais,  mô"vâ',  petit,  p8-ti',  are  meilleur,  mâ"wyûr',  pire,  pir, 
moindre,  mwan'._^dr8. 

The  superlative  absolute  is  formed  by  putting  très,  trâ,  fort, 
for,  or  bien,  bi"^yan',  very,  before  the  adjective,  and  the  super- 
lative relative,  by  prefixing  the  article  le,  la,  les,  according  to 
the  gender  and  number  required,  to  the  comparative  {une 
très  belle  ville  [tin  trâ  bel  vil],  a  very  fine  city;  la  plus  belle  des 
villes  [la  plu  bel  de  vîl],  the  finest  of  cities).  When  a  possessive 
pronoun  is  to  be  \ised  before  the  comparative,  the  article  is  left 
out  (mon  meilleur  ami  [men  mâ"wyûr'  a"mî'],  my  best  friend). 

When  the  adjective  relates  to  two  nouns  singular,  of  the  same 
gender,  it  must  be  put  in  the  plural  and  agree  with  them  in 
gender  (ma  mère  et  ma  sœur  sont  contentes  [ma  mâr  ë  ma  sûr 
sen  ken"tânt's_,8],  my  mother  and  sister  are  satisfied);  but 
when  the  two  nouns  to  which  the  adjective  relates  are  of 
different  genders,  the  adjective  must  be  put  in  the  masculine 
plural  (mon  père  et  ma  mère  sont  contents  [men  par  ë  ma  mâr 
sen  koh"tàh'],  my  father  and  mother  are  satisfied). 

In  French  qualifying  adjectives  are  placed  indifferently  be- 
fore or  after  the  nouns  they  qualify.  The  ear  and  the  taste 
determine  their  positions.  Certain  adjectives,  however,  change 
in  sense  according  to  their  positions;  such  are  brave  (brav), 
grand  (gran),  bon  (ben),  commun  (kem"^mah'),  pitil  (pa-tl'). 
For  example:  "Un  homme  bon"  is  a  good,  charitable  man,  but 
"un  bon  homme"  is  a  simple,  credulous  man.  Most  adjec- 
tives are  placed  after  the  novm — a  magnificent  palace:  Cu 
palais  magnifique  (ah  pa"iâ'  ma"nyî"fîk')  :  a  wise  man:  Un 
homme  sage  (ah^em  sâ'^3ô);  an  industrious  woman:  Une 
femme  industrieuse  (un  fâm  an"dûs"trï"s.^'yOz').  The  follow^nK 
corne  before  them: 

Beau,  cher  (denoting  affection),  gros,  jeune,  mauvais,  mé- 
chant petit— a.  handsome  horse:  Un  beau  cheval  (ah  bô  élia-val  ); 


FRENCH  GRAMMAR

NOUN.     There  are  two  sorts  of  nouns:  the  proper  noun, 

which  i3  applied  to  a  particular  person  or  thing  {César  [së"zâr'], 
Caesar;  les  Alpes  [lëz  alp],  Alps),  and  the  common  noun, 
which  belongs  to  a  whole  class  of  objects  {homme  [em],  man; 
forêt  [fô"rê'],  forest). 

To  nouns  belong  gender  and  number.  There  are  two  genders, 
the  masculine  {un  hom.me  [an  em],  a  man;  U7i  livre  [an  ll'.^vra], 
a  book;  le  courage  [la  kû"râ5'.^a],  courage),  and  the  feminine 
{une  femme  [un  fâm],  a  woman;  une  forêt  [un  fô"râ],  a  forest; 
la  victoire  [la  vîk"twâr'],  victory).  The  French  dictionary  is 
the  only  guide  to  follow  to  ascertain  the  gender  of  inani- 
mate objects.  Nouns  are  of  two  numbers,  the  singtdar  {arbre 
[âr'^bre],  tree;  tour  [tûr],  tower),  and  the  plural  {arbres  [dr'.^ 
bre],  trees;  tours  [tûr],  towers);  some  nouns  are  used  only  in 
the  singular  {le  courage  [la  kû"râ'^3a],  courage;  I'or  [1er],  gold), 
and  others  only  in  the  plural  {les  mouchettes  [le  mû''sliet'], 
snuffers;  des  épinards  [dëz^ë"pî"nâr'],  spinach). 

The  plural  is  formed  by  adding,  s  to  the  singular  {homme 
[em],  man,  hommes  [em],  men;  livre  [ll'^^vra],  book,  livres 
[lî'^vra],  books).  But  nouns  ending  in  s,  x,  z  in  the  singular, 
remain  the  same  in  the  plural  {fils  [fis],  son,  fxls  [fis],  sons; 
voix  [vwa],  voice,  voix  [vwa],  voices;  nez  [ne],  nose,  nez  [ne], 
noses)  ;  nouns  ending  in  au,  eu,  ou  are  rendered  plural  by  add- 
ing an  X  {bateau  [ba"tô'],  boat,  bateaux  [ba"tô'],  boats;  vœu  [vu], 
vow,  vœux  [vu],  vows;  bijou  [bï"_3û'],  jewel,  bijoux  [bi",^3ù'], 
jewels);  nouns  ending  in  al,  ail,  change  it  into  aux  in  the 
plural  {cheval  [sha-vôl'],  horse,  chevaux  [sha-vô'],  horses;  travail 
[tra'Vai'],  work,  travaux  [tra"vô'],  works),  except  bal  (bal),  ball; 
détail  (da-tai')i  detail,  and  some  others  which  follow  the  gen- 
eral rule.

VERB.  A  verb  active  expresses  an  action  and  implies  an 
agent  and  an  object  acted  upon  (elle  aime  son  père  [el  âm  sen 
par],  she  loves  her  father).  A  verb  passive  expresses  a  passion 
and  the  recei\'ing  of  an  action  (elle  est  aimée  de  son  père  [el  ët^ 
â''më'  da  sen  par],  she  is  loved  by  her  father).  A  verb  neuter 
expresses  being  or  a  state  of  being  (je  suis  [3a  svn],  I  am;  je 
dors  [3a  dor],  I  sleep;  je  vais  à  Londres  [3a  va  a  leh'^dra],  I 
go  to  London).  A  verb  pronominal,  or  conjugated  with  two 
pronoims,  i".  reflective,  when  the  action  it  implies  falls  upon 
the  subject  (je  me  flatte  [3a  ma  flat],  I  flatter  myself);  neuter, 
when  it  marks  only  a  state  of  the  subject  (elle  se  repent  [el  sa 
ra-pdn'],  she  repents;  il  s'enfuit  [il  san"fwï'],  he  ran  away), 
and  reciprocal,  when  there  is  a  reciprocity  of  action  between 
two  or  more  subjects  (ih  s' entr' aident  [il  san"trâ'^da],  they 
help  one  another);  it  is  also  used  impersonally  (il  se  bâtit  [il 
sa  ba"tï'],  there  is  building;  il  s'est  dit  [il  se  di],  it  has  been  said). 
Impersonal  verbs  are  only  used  in  the  third  person  singular 
(i7  neige  [il  nâ'^sa],  it  snows),  and  neuter  verbs  frequently 
assume  the  same  form  (it  vint  un  homme  [il  vant^,an^em], 
there  came  a  man).

SOME   ELEMENTS   OF 


FRENCH  VERBS  OF  REGULAR  CONJUGATION 

There  are  three  regular  conjugations  of  French  verbs:  (1)  donner 
(den'wne').  give;  (2)  finir  (fi'nîr'),  finish;  (3)  vendre  (vôn'^dra), 
sell.  From  the  principal  parts  of  the  verbs,  (1)  the  infinitive,  (2) 
the  present  participle,  (3)  the  past  participle,  (4)  the  present  in- 
dicative, (5)  and  the  preterit  indicative,  all  forms  of  regular  verbs 
may  be  inferred.     See  Tables  of  Regular  Verbs,  below. 

Most  of  the  French  verbs  are  of  the  first  regular  conjugation,  in 
which  the  Infinitive  ends  in  -er.

FRENCH   GRAMMAR

FRENCH  IRREGULAR  AND  DEFECTIVE  VERBS. 

In  the  following  table  (1)  the  Imperfect  Indicative,  (2)  the 
Conditional,  (3)  the  Imperative,  (4)  the  Present  Subjunctive,  and 
(5)  Imperfect  Subjunctive  are  omitted.  These  tenses  are  formed  : 
(1)  the  Imperfect  Indicative,  from  the  present  participle  by  chang- 
ing -ant  into  -ais;  thus,  all-ant  j'all-ais,  hatt-ant,  je  batt-ais.  (2) 
The  Conditional  is  formed  by  adding  s  to  the  Future  Tense; 
thus,  je  chanterai,  je  chanterais;  je  parlerai,  je  parlerais.  (3)  The 
Imperative  is  formed  from  the  Indicative  Present  by  omitting 
the  pronoun  (except  in  alter,  where  it  is  va).  Thus,  je  parle 
(indie,  près.);  parle  (imperative),  and  so  on.  There  are  three 
exceptions,  and  these  are  the  verbs  avoir  (have),  être  (be),  and 
savoir  (know).  (4)  The  Present  Subjunctive  is  iormed  very  irregu- 
larly,  but  may  be  easily  ascertained  from  a  French  grammar. 
(5)  The  Imperfect  Subjunctive  is  formed  from  the  preterit  indic- 
ative by  the  addition  of  -se,  etc.,  to  the  second  person  singular; 
as,  tu  parlas,  que  je  parlasse.* 

Compound  forms  for  all  parts  of  a  French  verb,  excepting 
the  imperative  and  the  past  participle,  are  formed,  as  in  Eng- 
lish, by  adding  the  past  participle  to  the  various  forms  of  the 
auxiliary  verb,  which  is  usually  avoir  (have),  but  sometimes 
être  (be).  For  example:  (1)  Past  participle,  a/Zé,-  perfect  in- 
finitive, eire  aZ^.  (2)  Past  participle,  encode;  perfect  infinitive, 
avoir  envoyé,  etc.

ADVERB.  So  called  because  it  most  frequently  accompanies 
the  verb.  There  are  in  French  several  kinds  of  adverbs  of 
which  the  following  are  the  principal:  (I)  Place  (ailleurs  [ai" -^ 
yûr'],  elsewhere);  (2)  Time  (aujourd'hui  [ô"3Ûr"^dwï'],  to*day); 
(3)  Quantity  (assez  [as"sê'],  enough);  (4)  Manner  or  Compari- 
son (ensemble  [ah"sâh's_,bla],  altogether);  (5)  Affirmation  or 
Doubt  (certainement  [sâr"tân"mâh'],  certainly);  (0)  Negation 
(non  [non],  no). 

Adverbs  are  generally  formed  by  adding  -ment  to  the  ad- 
jective in  its  feminine  form:  parfait  (parafa'),  masculine;  par- 
faite (par"fât'),  feminine;  adverb,  parfaitemetit  (pai-"fâ"ta-mâh')- 

Several  adverbs  are  employe^d  interrogatively,  as:  Quand 
partez'vousf  [kah  par"tê'  vu],  when  are  you  going?  They  form 
their  degrees  of  comparison  like  the  adjectives,  with  the  ex- 
ception of  the  following  three  which  are  irregular  in  the  com- 
parative degree:  bien,  bï"^yan'  (well)  ;  mieux,  mï"^yû'  (bettor)  ; 
mal,  mal  (badly);  pis,  pî  (worse);  and  pry,  pu  (little);  moins, 
mwah  (less).  The  superlative  relative  of  those  three  adverbs  is 
respectively:  le  mieux,  le  pis  and  le  moins,  and  the  superlative 
absolute — très  (trâ)  bien,  très  mal  and  très  pea. 

Adverbs  are  placed  imm,ediately  after  the  verb  in  French,  not 
before,  as  in  English. 

I  never  saw  him.     Je  ne  l'ai  jatnais  vu:  3a  na  là  5a"mri'  vu. 

He  often  comes  here.  //  vient  souvent  ici:  il  vî"^_^yan'  sû"vân' 
rsï'. 

I  always  speak  French.  Je  parle  toujours  français:  53  par's_la 
tQ"-5ûr'  fran''sâ'. 

They  seldom  go  out.    Ils  sortent  rarernent:  Il  sert  ra"^ra-mân'. 

Adverbs  of  quantity  require  de  before  the  next  noun. 

H(>  has  money  enough.    //  a  assez  d'argent:  il  a  as".sc'  dnr^jân'. 

They  have  much  wit.  Ils  ont  beaucoup  d'esprit:  listen  bô"kû' 
dos''pri'. 


FRENCH   GRAMMAR  183 

Few  people  think.     Peu  de  gens  pensent:  pu  da  3an  pans. 
He  never  has  money.     Il  n'a  jamais  d'argent:  il  na  3a''niâ' 
dar"3ân'.  ^ 

PREPOSITION.  A  particle  that  denotes  the  relation  of 
an  object  to  an  action  or  thing.  In  French  some  have  been 
formed  from  nouns,  as  malgré  (mal"grê'),  notwithstanding; 
from  adjectives,  as  sauf  (sôf),  except;  from  imperatives,  as 
voici  =  vois  ici  (vwa"si')i  here  is;  from  present  participles,  as 
durant  (dû"rân'),  during;  pendant  (pan"dâh'),  while;  touchant 
(tû"shân'),  concerning,  etc.;  or  from  past  participles,  as  vu 
(vii),  considering;  attendu  que  (at"tah"dù'  ka),  seeing  that; 
excepté  (ek"sep"tê') ,  except,  save;  hormis   (êr"mi'),  saving,  etc. 

The  relations  expressed  are  (1)  of  position;  as,  à  (a),  at; 
contre  (ken'tra),  against;  jusque  (sûs'ka),  as  far  as,  until;  (2) 
of  starting  point;  as,  de  (de),  of,  from;  par  (par),  by;  (3)  of  di- 
rection; as,  vers  (vâr),  toward;  (4)  of  manner;  as,  avec  (a"vek'), 
with;  par  (par),  through;  sans  (sah),  without;  (5)  of  time;  as, 
avant  (a'Vdn'),  before;  après  (a"prè'),  after;  dès  (dâ),  since; 
pendant  (pah"dâh'),  while,  etc.;  (6)  of  place;  as,  dans  (dan), 
in;  en  (an),  in,  within,  on,  to,  at,  like,  as  a,  out  of,  by,  for; 
chez  («Ole),  at  the  house  of,  at,  to,  in,  the  native  place  of;  devant 
(da-vdh'),  before;  derrière  (dâr"^rï"yâr'),  behind;  sur  (sûr),  on; 
sous  (su),  under;  entre  (ôn'^tra),  between;  parmi  (par"mï'), 
among. 

Almost  every  French  grammar  points  out  the  fact  that  the 
correct  use  of  prepositions  can  be  taught  by  practise  alone. 
The  chief  difficulty  arises  from  the  fact  that  there  are  about 
490  words — adjectives,  verbs,  and  participles — that  must  be 
connected  with  the  infinitive  that  foUows  sometimes  by  aid 
of  a  preposition,  often  without  this  aid;  as,  "II  ambitionne  de 
conquérir"  (îl  an"bi"sî"yen'.^na  da  k0n"kë"rir') :  "He  is  ear- 
nestly desirous  of  conquering,"  or  "He  desires  earnestly  to 
conquer;"  "II  veut  conquérir"  (il  vu  ken"kë"rîrO  :  "He  wishes 
to  conquer." 

Sometimes  prepositions  must  be  introduced  in  French  when 
there  are  none  in  the  English  sentence  one  wishes  to  utter; 
as,  "Je  doute  de  cela"  (3a  dût  da  sa-lâ'):  "I  doubt  that";  "Il 
a  nui  à  mon  frère"  (il  a  nwi  a  men  frâr):  "He  has  injured  my 
brother." 

Likewise,  sometimes,  hut  infrequently,  the  preposition  in  an 
English  sentence  is  suppressed  in  French: — We  listen  to  the 
chaplain:  Nous  écoutons  le  chapelain  (nûZwë''kû"teri'  la  sTia"- 
pa-lân'). 

CONJUNCTION.  A  part  of  speech  which  serves  to  con- 
nect words  or  sentences.  In  French  they  are  classified  as:  (1) 
Copidative  conjunctions,  conjunctions  expressing  addition  or  ex- 
pansion; as,  et  (ê),  and;  aussi  (ôs"sï'),  also.  (2)  Alternative 
conjunctions,  or  those  that  introduce  an  alternative;  as,  ou  (û), 
or;  ni  (ni),  nor.  (3)  Coordinate  conjunctions,  or  those  that 
join  coordinate  clauses  in  compound  sentences;  as,  m.ais  (ma), 
but;  néanmoins  (nê"an"mwan'),  notwithstanding.  (4)  Subor- 
dinate conjunctions,  or  those  that  join  subordinate  to  principal 
clauses;  as,  quoique  (kwd'ka),  altho. 

The  principal  conjunctions  are:  ainsi  (an"sï'),  thus;  aussi

Thermometkic 
The  thermometrlc  scale  used  in  the  United  States  and  in  Great 
Britain  is  tliat  of  Fahrenheit.     On  the  Continent,  that  of  Celsius, 
the  Centigrade  scale,  is  em- 
ployed.

Blood  heat,  that  is  the 
normal  temperatin-e  of  the 
human  body,  is  98 '2°  Fahr. 
or  37°  Cent.  Any  rise  above 
this  temperature   indicates 
fever  heat. 

In  cases  of  fever  tempera- 
tures of  99.5°  to  100.5° 
Fahrenheit  are  considered 
as  mild;    100.5°  to   101.5°  ^  IfiTvH 

Fahr.  as  slight;  up  to  103° 
Fahr.  as  moderate;  up  to 
105°  Fahr.  as  considerable; 
above  105°  Fahr.  as  high 
fever.  The  highest  fever 
temperature  within  the  lim- 
its of  life  (excluding  excep- 
tionally rare  cases)  is,  on 
an  average,  107.6°  to  108.5°

In  French  ? 

If  you  are  now  in  the  war-service  or  if  there  is  any 
possibility  of  your  entering  it,  one  of  your  most  im-

of  conversational  French.  The  American  army  will 
fight  side  by  side  with  the  French.  The  American 
navy  will  be  in  close  cooperation  with  the  French 
navy.  Soldiers  and  sailors  on  leave  will  spend  much 
of  their  time  in  Paris  and  other  French  cities.  To 
perform  your  duties  efficiently,  to  win  promotion  by 
quickly  becoming  adapted  to  your  position,  to  get  the 
mostjpleasure  and  profit  from  your  visit  abroad,  to  in-
